THE ELECTROPSYCHOMETER – AN AID TO AUDITING

	In auditing, the E-meter, or electropsychometer, is used to measure the mental state or change of state of a person, helping the auditor and parishioner locate and handle areas of spiritual distress existing below the individual’s current awareness.

Most auditors use a special electropsychometer—called an “E-meter"—to assist them in helping parishioners address experiences which lie at the root of spiritual travail. (Electro-psych-ometer, from electrometer: a calibrated device used for measuring extremely low voltages, and psyche: the human soul, spirit or mind.)

This religious instrument is vital because the mental image pictures that harbor these experiences also hold very minute amounts of electrical energy that can be detected with the E-meter. As this charge varies or dissipates, the auditor knows the parishioner has successfully addressed—and resolved—the source of that aspect of his spiritual entrapment. Thus, while the E-meter by itself does nothing, it is an invaluable guide for the auditor.
